Gulfstream G150 Certified for China Registration

Gulfstream Aerospace has received type certificate validation (TCV) for its G150 aircraft from the Civil Aviation Administration of China (CAAC), a move that allows operators to register the wide-cabin, high-speed business jet there.

The G150, thanks to its 3,000 nautical-mile range and high speed is ideal for operators in the region, and is backed by the same product support organization that services Gulfstream's long-range G550 and G450 aircraft.

The G150 can fly from Singapore to Beijing in 6 hours and 10 minutes and nonstop from Hong Kong to Mumbai at Mach 0.75, Hong Kong to Delhi at Mach 0.80 and Beijing to Delhi at Mach 0.80.

The mid-size jet also offers several options to improve safety, including an Enhanced Vision System (EVS) II, and a Wide Area Augmentation System-Localizer Performance with Vertical Guidance (WAAS-LPV).

In addition to China, the G150 has received type certification validation from the Ukraine, Israel, the United States, Chile, the European Union, the Philippines, Canada and Brazil.
